Last year, the ombre hair trend swept over, and now it looks like 2015 is the year of balayage. What exactly is balayage? It is a French coloring technique that creates subtle highlights which complement your natural hair color, like the effect the sun has when your were young. Applied by hand, it looks less harsh than traditional highlights and grows out with no maintenance. Balayage can be done on brunettes and blondes, making it super versatile. Check out these five dark haired celebrity brunettes who rock the balayage trend with amazing results.
